The Story of my Blog Title

Quilt of Dragonflies- My blog is named that for a reason.I am lucky enough to own a genuine Quilt of Dragonflies, which I am sure brings me good dreams when I sleep beneath it. It was given to me by a friend of my mother's, who handmade the entire thing. Color meets pattern in this fantastic piece of artwork which sits on my bed. Brilliant shades of purple, blue, and green intersperse with tie dye dragonflies. I will not hesitate to call it my inspiration.

Rainy Day

Rainy Day
by Claire

Tears
Falling from the sky
Splashing
On the pavement
Worming their way
Under your umbrella
Laughing at your frustration
And general sogginess
It's that kind of day

Puddles
Lapping at the sides
Of your rain boots
Sneaking in through
Nonexistent cracks
Drenching your socks
And toes
And ankles
It's that kind of day

People
Hunched over against the wind
Being bitten by a thousand little teeth
Scurry across your path
Desperate to get inside
Away from the sadness
Away from the tears
That fall from the sky

It's that kind of day
